Made from Paarl and Swartland grapes, the Mischief Maker is a Shiraz dominated blend assembled each year with different proportions of Grenache and Mourvèdre.
It is hand-crafted in the same manner as the Cabernet and as with the Cabernet, I am trying to make wine as naturally as possible to showcase the fruit from the vineyard.
We all have a mischievous friend that this wine is named after!
5 Stars 2026 John Platter’s South African Wine Guide
Shiraz with dabs grenache noir & mourvedre, 15 months oaked, luscious 24 ***** (95 pts)’s berry mix dusted with vanilla & spice, notes of pepper & scrub adding complexity. Already appealing but ageability not overlooked: enough musculature for fine future. Paarl & Swartland vines, like last 22 (94 pts).
